Toys for 4 year old girl

Such a big girl now! Your 4-year-old girl doesn’t look or act much like a baby anymore. The developmental milestones after your little girl’s 4^th birthday make it fun to hang out with your 4-year-old, playing with toys. Four-year-old girls enjoy doing new things and become even more creative with their make-believe play. She loves to role play as a parent with a toy kitchen and pretend utensils and food. Dollhouses are a big hit with 4-year-old girls as most girls would rather play with other children than by themselves.  

When she plays with other children, she cooperates nicely most of the time yet sometimes has trouble knowing the difference between what’s real and what’s make-believe. Your 4-year-old is likely to tell you all about what she likes, often in great detail. Her language skills continue to improve as she uses several basic grammar rules correctly. She can now sing songs from memory and likely asks you to join in.

Your 4-year-old can now introduce herself by both first and last name and may know her parents’ names, too. She knows several colours, letters and numbers, and loves to put together puzzles and play games to test her abilities. She can say some numbers and understand the idea of counting items but may still be working on solving the one-to-one correspondence that counting takes. Number blocks and other counting puzzles help develop these pre-maths skills and build a foundation for STEM studies later on.

One of the biggest milestones with your 4-year-old girl is the understanding of the concept of time. Now, many parents count the number of “sleeps” before an important event. Also, your child likely now tells elaborate stories, some from memory and others from her imagination. Supporting imaginative play with open-play toys helps girls develop this sort of creativity in a positive way. Many 4-year-old girls love to play board games and card games that are age-appropriate.
